Swiss Turkey Burgers with Onions

As you know Steve LOVES hamburgers. He is leaving for a business trip in the morning so because I love him I made turkey burgers for dinner. It was only after the first bite when he said "Mmmm these are good" did he know it was turkey. I also made my famous oven fries.

Combine turkey, salt , and spices, the amounts above are just guesses. I always season to taste unless I'm baking or have never made the dish before. The bread crumbs would be added now too, but only add them if your turkey is having trouble staying together, this helps to soak up some moisture.Heat a Tbs oil in a small nonstick pan over medium heat and add onions. Let them caramelize while burgers work.Cook burgers on a griddle or grill. 5-6 minutes each side. Be sure the burgers are cook all the way through, it's poultry, I don't want any sickies!When done place cheese on the burgers and cover with foil, let stand until cheese is gooey and melty. Serve topped with onions. I personally like the spicy brown mustard on this one, no ketchup please.

About me

I love to cook...now. When I was first married it was really hit and miss. The first time I tried to make biscuits and gravy the gravy tasted like paste and my husband just smiled and suggested we go to IHOP. I also messed up fudge the first 10 times I made it! Now I only mess up maybe once a year. My ultimate goal is to be just like Paula Deen. She is my hero in every way. Food is about WAY more than filling your tummy. It's about family and filling your soul with love and good times. I hope some of these dishes can inspire you to make meal time family time.
